MOST RECENT UPDATE: May 16, 2011

Most recent changes:The site now functions without requiring the use of a mouse. We also broke the long pages formerly reflecting Part 1 and Part 2 into shorter ones containing ten to twelve hexagrams apiece, for faster load time. The table of contents (list) has been tweaked for better accessibility, which also changes display for wide screens.

Gratitude to all the feedback encouraging us in ways to expand and improve.

Thanks go to a number of persons who saved me the trouble of typing a first draft of Book I, including Akira Rabelais and anonymous graduate students across the U.S.

The general layout is largely consistent with the printed 1967 Wilhelm/Baynes edition so those familiar with that arrangement would find using this site a natural transition. We intend to grow this site over time until the entire Wilhelm tome is available online. It is also our hope you find this the best site for traditional use of the I Ching.
Please let us know if you find the appearance pleasing and the site function clear and easy to use. Any suggestions for improvement may be made via e-mail. Thanks to all who write with comments and suggestions.
We are now focusing on redesign of the entire site and will soon put up a sample page for our visitors to check out and review. It features faster load times, better linking of cross-references, and better support for UD principles.

While any remaining errors in text or function are the sole responsibility of Panther Webworks llc, we’d appreciate notice if you find any reproduction errors, no matter how small.

Hints for using this site:

When you point to the text for LINE, a "flyout" appears containing Wilhelm’s commentary on that LINE. Clicking on the LINE or its commentary box will cause that line to move to the top of your screen, giving more window space to read the commentary. If the "flyout" still extends off your screen, even after clicking on it, there are two ways to move the window content up:
1) If you have a roller wheel on your mouse, of course you can merely scroll with that, as usual.
2) or leave your mouse pointed near the top of the flyout and use the arrow keys on your keyboard (usually lower right) to move the window contents up and down.

Moving the mouse to the scrollbar at the side will cause the flyout to disappear. It will reappear when you mouse over the LINE text again.
